《Dex's Adventure Through The Elemental Nations (Completed)》Chapter 12
Advertisement
Dex's POV;
I woke up with throbbing eyes, like they were itching. A feeling that isn't really comfortable. I raised my hand to rub my eyes, but was stopped by someone who grabbed my hand and for the first time I tried to open my eyes. Only to see nothing, my eyes were bandaged.
“Morning, I know they throb, but rubbing them isn't allowed”, said the distinct voice of Tsunade.
“Okay. Did it work?”, was my reply and I heard her moving away from the bed I was sitting on.
“I can't say for sure, the eyes were accepted by your body, but only time will tell if they also helped with your problem”, she answered truthfully.
“It worked, I rewrote some of the DNA from your eyes and they now resemble someone closely related”, threw Kura-chan in.
“You are able to change my DNA?”, I asked a little stunned. Sure, there were many stories about the Kyuubi changing Naruto's body. But none of these was really lore friendly.
“I can, but it isn't really recommended. The changes will hurt like hell if I am to apply them to already grown body parts. Your new eyes weren't fully a part of you, which made the whole thing way easier. I'm a part of you, did you think I wouldn't be able to change you when I'm able to change myself?”, she explained.
“Well yes, you are made out of Chakra, while I'm made from minerals and elements”, I answered honestly.
“Chakra and nature energy, or like you're calling it mana, is part of everything. You yourself know how it is to create things out of mana. Chakra can do the same. They are essentially the two foundations of all things”, she further explained and I had to agree. Why shouldn't it be possible, if I could do it with mana?
Then why wasn't I able to learn how to control Chakra?”, I asked. I theorised that it has something to do with my perversely high mana reserves.
“You had too much mana. Why do you think is it so hard to learn Senjutsu? It's because they have to learn how to balance the corresponding Mana and Chakra flowing through their body.
The higher one of them is, the harder it will be to learn Senjutsu. Your mana was so high that it was practically impossible to learn Senjutsu”, she said and confirmed a long time assumption of mine.
“Dexter?”, asked Tsunade in a concerned tone. Seems like I spaced out.
“Sorry, I talked with the Kyuubi. She changed the DNA of the eyes. They now resemble someone close related and not me anymore. How long do I have to keep these on?”, I said and tapped the bandages on my head.
“Normally I would say a week. I can't be sure with the Kyuubi in you”, she stated.
“Half a day”, chimed Kura-chan in.
“Seems like I have to keep them on for half a day”, I said. Being blind is annoying. I may be able to feel Tsunade and everyone around me, but not seeing is still uncomfortable.
“I fetch something to eat”, Tsunade then said and left the room.
“How long do you think will my eyes need to awaken the Rinnegan?”, I suddenly said to Kura-chan.
“A normal human with both Senju and Uchiha DNA would need a couple of years. Training and fights might decrease the needed time”, she replied.
“But Madara only got his Rinnegan closely before his death”, I countered.
“Yes, but his Senju DNA was not his own. It took way longer in this unnatural way. And is also way more dangerous. At most it will take you ten years and the least is hard to say. With my help maybe a month. But that isn't recommended. I might not be able to do it and your eyes could go blind. But worry not, it will only take ten years, if you do nothing than sitting around. It will most likely take you between three and four years”, she said.

“Okay, I have time. The academy will start in two years anyway”, I agreed and waited until Tsunade came back.
“I made some sandwiches, they are easy to eat”, she said as she put a tray in my lap.
“Thanks Baa-chan”, I commented and almost felt her tick mark.
“Don't call me old”, she said annoyed.
“But you are my Baa-chan. I'm also not a brat”, I said wisely.
“But I'm not old Gaki”, she replied.
“Fine Baa-chan. I won't call you Baa-chan, Baa-chan”, I said smugly.
“I might regret to have accepted helping you”, she said with a sigh.
“So, Gaki, what are you doing now?”, she then asked and her smirk was audible as she called me a brat.
“I think I'll get used to my new eyes and then start to build a reputation. I also need to see how strong I'm in comparison to others. My none existent ability to discern the strength of both me and my opponent is dangerous”, I said between bites.
“I could spar against you. I know enough to evaluate your strength”, she offered.
“I would appreciate that. In return, we can go gambling. I know that my luck outshines your own misfortune”, I said with a grin and she mumbled something about brats and their cockiness. She nonetheless agreed anyway.
The next day I took my bandages off and slowly opened my eyes. The sight that greeted me was clearer than the one I had before the operation. This must mean that it truly worked.
We ate a light breakfast and then walked out of town. Our spar would only gain unwanted attention.
We stopped near a large clearing and Tsunade and I got in position. I had my male Henge on, as it will be my most used form outside of Konoha.
“Good, let's test each Ninja Skill, Taijutsu, Genjutsu, Kenjutsu and Ninjutsu. After that come your Bloodlines. Any questions?”, she stated with her arms crossed under her breasts.
“Do I attack with the intent to kill or am I just showing off my skills?”, I asked.
“Intend to kill of course”, she replied and I took my double-bladed sword out of a sealing tattoo on my arm. It's less questionable this way, that taking it out of my inventory.
“So Kenjutsu first?”, she asked rhetorical.
I moved my left hand into a sign and shouted “Kai!”. Seals all over my body began to glow in a red light and my gravity and limiter seals were released.
Tsunade simply watched and let me prepare. This wasn't a real fight, so she had no reason to stop me.
I slightly crouched and then used Chakra to enhance my leap. A leap that catapulted me directly at her. She didn't budge and waited for me to reach her. Maybe half a metre away from her I raised my two-bladed sword in a diagonal upward slash. But she saw this and moved back, evading the attack.
I didn't let go and rotated mid slash and thrust the other side forward. Pointed at her stomach, but she used her Chakra enhanced strength to hit the wide side of the blade and with that pushed it down into the ground.
“Good try, but you moved too soon”, she commented and reached out for a hit on her own. I quickly jumped back, while simultaneously pulling the blade out of the ground. Tsunade on her part didn't stop the attack and created a crater with the impact of her fist.
I said nothing and choose to attack again, this time with an upward slash. She sidestepped it but was nicked as I completed the circle and used the other side to follow the first one.

Her follow-up was another fist that was evaded and created a crater.
This continued for a few minutes. Neither of us got a hit in and the clearing was already littered with craters. And then I finally noticed why she was never taking her fist back and always finished her attack. At first glance it could look like she was showcasing her strength. But all the craters make it difficult to move around and to find a firm stance. But she was used to these situations and was creating her very own field advantage during the fight.
“So that is why you're always going through with your attacks”, I commented and jumped away as she tried to bitch slap me.
“So you've noticed? Impressive for someone so young”, she commented.
“I think this is enough, your level of Kenjutsu is only at the C-Rank. At best high Genin”, she then said and I put my weapon back.
“Now let's try Taijutsu”, she added and attacked me. She was fast enough to cross the distance between us in mere seconds, but still not fast enough to hit me. Her swings were too wide for me to hit her. On the other hand, I couldn't hit her as well. The support I had from my Skill in my previous live was gone and she had vast experiences.
I still knew how I should act, but my body didn't move like I wanted to. I learned a few years ago that I still had the memories of my skills. But strangely not the body to enact them. Training helped and I regained some of them. But there is a difference between the Skill on LV 10 and the self learned one.
The skill was perfect, no flaw or other problems in it, while the simple fact of learning something guarantees flaws.
It didn't help that I almost never used hand to hand combat in my old live. There is hardly anything to remember from and I'm like a blank paper if it comes down to hand to hand fights.
I did try to learn it with clones fighting me, but that only helped little.
A few minutes after evading and not hitting she raised a hand and signalled me to stop.
“That's enough, I'm sorry to say, but your Taijutsu skills are almost none existent. Luckily for you, you are fast enough to evade anything up to A-Rank. Say, how strong are you physically?”, she said.
“I can lift up to a ton and am able to use your Chakra punches”, I said and she raised an eyebrow in curiosity.
“Oh really? Show me”, she said in challenge. I gladly did and hit the ground like she did. Shortly before my fist made contact with the ground I coated it in Chakra and let it burst out in a quick flash. The effect was the same as with Tsunade's attack and a crater was formed.
Tsunade whistled and then asked; “How did you manage to learn that?”.
“I put too much Chakra into my feet during tree climbing and blasted the tree away. And simply thought it could work as well with my fists”, I lied and said the truth at the same time. I really blasted the tree away, but I also knew how to do her technique.
“Impressive. Let's continue with Genjutsu”, she praised.
“Good, I'm only able to do area off effect Genjutsu, when I'm not using my eyes”, I stated and then put the whole field in a inverse Genjutsu. Every movement will be inverted and the body will think it was using the right foot, while in reality it was using the left.
She stumbled a few times and then began to slowly regain her balance.
“That's a good one, enemies will need time to get accustomed to and most lower Ranked Ninja won't be fast enough to fight back. Anything else?”, she asked.
“Yes”, I stated and added a sense darkening Genjutsu. This one dims every sense of the victim. ´He will see, hear, smell and feel less. Making his already confused body even more troubled.
“KAI!”, yelled Tsunade, but it didn't work, at the first time. She had to flare her Chakra for a second time to get out of the Jutsu. A really good praise for my skills, as medic Ninja often are very good at breaking out of Genjutsu.
“Very good. Now the last Ninja skill, Ninjutsu. What Jutsu do you have?”, she said with a smile.
“I have my fathers Rasengan, his Hiraishin, the finished Rasengan, my improved Henge and three of my own creation”, I replied and her eyes went wide.
“Please show them, but for safety attack the tree line”, she said after a short pause.
I nodded and created a Rasengan, before charging wind elemental Chakra inside. The Rasenshuriken screeched in it's characteristic sound and was then launched of by me. Invisible Chakra treats guided and contained the ball of wind blades into the tree line, where I let it expand.
The white ball expanded into a 7 metre diameter sphere of white wind blades. The sphere ripped earth and trees alike into shreds. And left a smooth hole in the ground.
“I'm also able to fling it around like a ball on a string, while it then cuts through everything in its way”, I said proudly and turned around to see a pale Shizune and a slightly sweating Tsunade.
“That thing is at least S-Rank. Probably higher. Is there a reason for throwing it? An enemy might be able to evade fast enough”, she said in awe.
“There is, the Jutsu also shreds my own arm when it expands. The damage is on cellular level and hard to heal.
I came up with the solution to use Chakra threads. With them I can guide and supply the Jutsu. It's also possible to do quick turns, so it has an additional effect by surprising the enemy when he thinks to have already evade the danger”, I explained.
“To think that Minato had that in mind when he created the Rasengan”, she muttered.
“The next one is a Jutsu that I called [Air Gun] it's like [Wind Bullet] with smaller, faster and a little less destructive. But it compensates for its lesser offensive ability by quantity”, I explained my next Jutsu and breathed in, before mumbling [Air Gun]. A few hundred small, not larger than 6 centimetres and thicker than 2 centimetres air bullets shot out of my mouth and hit the tree line like a assault rifle.
While I don't need hand signs for all my Jutsu, I still need to say the name. The signs and the stating of the name makes the moulding of Chakra easier. They are like the arias of magic casters. With enough practise not necessary, but still helpful.
“Around B-Rank, C if it comes only to the damage”, she commented. That was roughly my own estimation.
“The next one is more destructive, it creates fields of vacuum. And the release of the Jutsu lets them refill with air. The resulted shock wave is quite destructive, [Vacuum Field]”, I said and made ten vacuum fields.
“Did it not work?”, asked Shizune as nothing happened and I smirked, before stopping the input of Chakra. Ten loud explosions rocketed the field and wind blew in our face.
“So they can also act like mines? A good Jutsu, A-Rank. Are you able to use all your Jutsu without hand signs?”, she said and I nodded.
“Why?”, she asked.
“Against the Sharingan and anyone who knows my skills. The Sharingan won't be able to copy them without signs and enemies won't know what I will do next. It takes more time and training but will be worth it in the long run”, I explained and she nodded in agreement.
“On to the next one”, I said cheerfully. “[Slicing Storm]”, was then mumbled by me and a fifty metre wide and twenty metres tall tornado ripped through the forest. Trees were uprooted and carried in the air before they were ultimately shredded to splinters, which then helped with the shredding themselves.
“Also S-Rank, Gaki are you a monster?....And the last one?”, she asked after a short pause to think about the already seen.
“The last one is more defensive. Like the lightning armour of the Raikage. It's an armour of wind, that can act as a shredder for any incoming attack, but also as a weapon. [Swirling Armour]”, I said and my body was coated in wind.
I then walked up to a tree and touched it slightly. The bark I touched turned into a fine powder of wood. I stopped the technique after slowly moving my arm through the whole tree.
“Hmm, are you able still able to move as fast as in our spar with this Jutsu?”, she asked.
“Not really, I'm only three fourth as fast with [Swirling Armour] active”, I admitted.
“Then it's probably lower A-Rank. Try to add wind Chakra into your legs and decrease the air resistance of your body through different wind layers. Maybe it will increase your speed. If you're able to do that, then it will raise to high A-Rank”, she advised and I paid attention. I'll surely will try that at a later time.
“Okay, now your Bloodlines. Or do you need a pause? You already used two high ranked Genjutsu and four really Chakra consuming other Jutsu”, she asked concerned.
“Don't worry, I'm a Chakra monster. I could throw ten more Rasenshuriken before I feel exhausted”, I said matter of factly and produced six glowing chains that were coming out of my back.
“These are the same Chains as Kurshina-chan's. Up to how far can you use them and how durable ar they?”, she asked.
“Up to twenty metres and durable enough to lift and crunch trees”, I said and demonstrated my claim by uprooting a tree. The forest was already decimated by my showcase of Jutsu, so one tree more or less won't matter.
“Good, what about your eyes?”, she asked interested. A Senju wasn't often on the friendly end of a Sharingan.
“Ähm, there are four skills I have with the Mangekyou-Sharingan”, I said and activated them. I also took a mirror out and noticed that the design changed slightly. I now had a Swastika with sickles on each end.
“They look scary, yet pretty”, commented Shizune.
“Okay, the first skill is called Amaterasu”, I said and ignited a tree and extinguished the flames when said tree was burned down.
“These flames will burn everything, even water. And are really hard to stop. The only real way to get rid of them is to use the Mangekyou-Sharingan on them again. Other than that, just don't get hit”, I explained.
“Easy to say, they move as was as you can see”, scoffed Tsunade.
“The second skill is the Tsukuyomi, a said to be unbreakable Genjutsu”, I said and looked Tsunade in the eyes. She was instantly trapped in my Genjutsu and found herself in a white room with me standing next to her.
“I'm also able to show memories and play god inside this Genjutsu”, I elaborated and the room flashed before it showed how I ate chicken.
Tsunade tried to get out of the Jutsu, but couldn't so I released it.
“The time is slightly altered, but not by much. It takes huge amounts of Chakra to alter time over larger spans”, I said.
“I've never seen such a Genjutsu, the Uchiha truly aren't said to be the best in Genjutsu for nothing”, she commended.
“After that comes the Susano ò”, I said and the ribcage formed around me before it grew into a 10 metre tall fully matured Susano ò. The four arms were already grasping a Katana in each hand and the head looked down at a quivering Shizune.
“This is a fully matured Susano ò, there is a higher firm but it is taller than the Hokage mountains and would gather too much attention. It is, however, strong enough to cut through mountains”, I said and my Susano ò dissolved.
“And Jiji fought against that?”, asked Tsunade in disbelieve.
“Ahem”, I coughed slightly and she regained her composure.
“The last technique will knock me out, as I already have used too much Chakra. So we have to wait for an hour”, I said and she nodded dumbly.
“It was impressive, to begin with that you are able to use so many high levelled techniques in such small time”, she said praisingly.
An hour of rest later I was again fully charged.
“Good, this is the unique skill of my eyes. No other Mangekyou-Sharingan user has this technique”, I began and took a sword out of my seal.
Tsunade looked interested and stayed silent, but cried out in shock as I hacked my hand off.
“While this would be a mortal wound for any normal human, it isn't in my case”, I explained, not the least bit faced by the blood that gushed out of my stump.
Tsunade also began to quiver slightly, most likely a relapse of her fear. But she tried to stay strong.
“[Flames of Healing]”, I muttered and white flames engulfed my stump. The flames shone brightly and suddenly my hand began to grow back. The flames were moving with the growth until they stopped at my fingertips and then vanished.
“As you can see, the wound fully healed”, I said and gave her my hand to inspect, while panting from the loss of Chakra. [Flames of Healing] is the Jutsu with my highest Chakra consumption. Healing my own hand takes as much as three Rasenshuriken.
She still was shocked but started the diagnosis Jutsu after looking dumbly at my regrown hand.
After gasping again she looked at me with wide eyes, before saying; “It's new, the whole hand is new and doesn't show any signs of ageing. Do you know what this means?”.
“I didn't know about the no ageing, but it basically means that I am able to heal any wound. A fattened liver will be healthy again after my flames”, I said.
“Not just that, it would also mean that you can be immortal”, she said shocked and I shook my head.
“Nope, you forget the fact, that the hand has the same age as me. That would mean that everything I heal has the same age as the body. So an old man will stay old after healing. He wouldn't die of any disease, but ultimately still of old age”, I corrected her and she stopped, before nodding slowly.
“You are right, I think I just was too shocked”, she then admitted.
“It must be quite shocking for a medic Ninja to see someone regrow a lost appendage with a Jutsu. It was shocking enough for Shizune to black out”, I said and pointed at the downed form of Shizune.
Tsunade giggled a little but then looked sternly at me.
“Never frighten me like that again. Can you imagine how shocked I was as you cut off your hand?!”, she said angrily and bonged me on my head.
“So Baa-chan, what rank do you think I am?”, I asked while rubbing my head sheepishly.
“Hard to say. Your close quarter fighting sucks major. But your Jutsu and Bloodline abilities are on A-Rank or even S-Rank. You said you knew every Uzumaki sealing Jutsu?”, she asked and I nodded, “then with enough time to prepare I would surely say SS-Rank. Fuinjutsu are the most destructive Ninja skill, if you have time to prepare. Without Fuinjutsu C to B-Rank in close quarter fights and A-Rank on middle distances and with the use of your Mangekyou-Sharingan. So maybe upper B-Rank. We have to train you in Taijutsu, if that is down to an acceptable level than upper A or even S-Rank”, she evaluated skilfully and with clear signs of vast experiences.
“I have two more years before I have to go back for the Ninja Academy. Could you train me a year in medic Jutsu and Taijutsu?”, I asked hopefully and she grinned sadistically at me.
“Sure, get ready to be worked to the bone”, she said and walked off with me to wake Shizune.

Baa-chan; As far as I know it means grandmother or granny.
